have plenty of room in this great old home with a great cabin feel. Direct view of the lake and along backyard with a dock. Two neighbors on either side directly on the lake but they were kind and happy to have us. Lots of snow and lots of single-digit temps while we were there. Used the fireplace a ton and the Wi-Fi - both worked great and there was a huge stack of firewood. Everything you can think of was provided at the house.

Fabulous rental for extended family getaway

Camp Bearberry was a great place for our 3-generation family of 8 adults + 4 children. We appreciated having bathrooms for each bedroom and the well-stocked kitchen. We made full use of the two porches, spacious dock, yard and direct lake access.The only thing we needed was more sunny days!

Great Fa.ily Vacation

What an incredible place to stay at. The house is beautiful and perfect for a family with a fully stocked kitchen with every appliance necessary. The yard is incredible right down to the water. You should definitely rent their pontoon boat because it makes the lake even that much nicer. The hosts were wonderful and always available if you had Any questions.. I would highly recommend this property to anyone and we can't wait to go back!

Another wonderful visit!

This was our second time renting Camp Bearberry. Everything was great. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. We were able to prepare our meals easily in the kitchen and grill outside. We enjoyed amazing Lake Placid views from the porch and spacious dock. Loved using the kayaks, paddle board, and boat! Only a short drive to Main Street to shop and go out to eat. We’ve rented waterfront properties in Lake Placid for years and this was one of the best lakefront experiences.
